Believing Beyond You: a Conversation with Education Entrepreneur, Rebecca

S2 EP 024 | Believing Beyond You: a Conversation with Education Entrepreneur, Rebecca

 In this episode we’re chatting with Rebecca, an incredible educator and entrepreneur, and basically sunshine in human form. We recorded this episode back in October (eek!) but reliving our conversation with Rebecca was exactly what we needed during a cold February in Boston! She speaks to our soul and we know you will love her wisdom, advice, and motivational words, too!

We cover Rebecca’s extensive 15+ years in education taking on multiple roles in both public and charter school settings, from reading interventionist to special education teacher, to testing coordinator, to school leadership! She’s an inspiring reminder of the many roles one can have in education depending on their current circumstances and passions.

We chat about Rebecca’s adult gap year, her incredible program for Educators turned Entrepreneurs, and how excellent she is at pausing when necessary to think about her purpose and pivoting accordingly.  As educators, the “go go go” mentality can get the best of us, and though Rebecca fell victim to this lifestyle too, she has since learned to make slowing down a priority and chooses a holistic approach to success.

Rebecca’s an educator at heart with an entrepreneurial spirit, showcasing a successful tutoring business, online reading course for students, and consulting business.  She reminds us that being a teacher is not limiting - it’s expansive! There is so much you can do in and out of the classroom to reignite your passion and all it takes is putting one foot in front of the other even if you’re unsure of the outcome.

Tune in and be reminded to celebrate all the things you’ve accomplished,  find your teacher besties and support system, and remember that no matter how hard it gets you’re never stuck - you have the power!  Plus, stick around to the end to hear the crazy story of the time her cell phone went missing in her classroom for three entire days!!!
